I have decided to no longer add light streaks or filters as there was quite a lot of colour and saturation whilst I was editing my images as I used a gradient map with a blending mode which added colour over my multiple exposures really nicely. If I had added filters it would have looked too colourful and distract from the narrative and imagery and If I had added light streaks, I feel they would have blocked out too much important imagery as I need everything on show to tell my narrative of lucid dreaming which is the whole idea of the images.
I am presenting my work as A3 prints which will be hanging from the ceiling rather than being stuck to the wall. They will be mounted on foamboard.
I will have my original 6x4 prints from my disposable cameras and 6x4 prints of the original portraits that I used so that people can look at them and think about which images I put together in my final images. This allows them to think more about my work and get involved with my work rather than just scanning and walking by.
I did not print on acetate as unfortunately I did not have the funds to do this, as I did not save each layer of the images as an a4 file it would have taken me a long time to rescale and resize all of the separate layers that I would have needed for each print.
I am still very happy with my results and Originally I wanted to print my finals in A4 but after some advice I printed them A3 which worked really well as they were a lot more visible and eye catching and I look forward to seeing them displayed.
